In this study we explore the seasonal variability of the mean winds, diurnal, semidiurnal tidal amplitude and phases as well as the Reynolds stress components during 2019, utilizing meteor radars at six southern hemisphere locations ranging from mid- to polar latitudes. These include Tierra del Fueg...
